Paper, eh?

You'd think that the paper anniversary would be an easy one for me, but I don't think giving Rob a pack of appointment cards and a set of gift tags is really appropriate. I whipped up a little makeshift Renegade Craft Fair gift certificate for tomorrow, and I have a geeky gift, of course. Microscope slides. Woohoo!

But I thought I'd write a silly little poem for him, like I used to. Figured I'd share with all you strangers out there!

It’s been one year since we embarked on joyful wedded blissOn June 15th I became Mrs., instead of just a MissThat year’s flown by and in that time more memories were sharedSo now today, we can reflect and see how well we’ve fared

There’s been some strain along the way, we’ve had our share of stressBut I, the optimist, would say it works out for the bestYou’ll change your school and things will be superior, by farAnd look at me, I’m bound to be a craft girl superstar

We’ll sell our home and probably for a reasonable priceOur driving time will cut in half which will be oh so niceEverything will be pristine, you’re really going to love itThe bathtub will have naught been used, you will not have to scrub it

And after we have settled down our time it will arriveWhere we could do most anything that our hearts could contriveWe’ll have so much free time on hand we won’t know what to doAnd I don’t care as long as it’s free time that’s spent with you

So thank you for this brilliant year we’ve spent as man and wife And thanks, as well, for years to come as we move through our lifeI hope that you enjoyed this little ditty that I’ve pennedAnd remember, you’re not just my spouse, you’re also my best friend
